Announce a Commission looking into the 2016, 2018, and 2020 election crimes including money and foreign influence, and corruption in our government. Then call all those pardoned including trump to testify under oath. If they lie, that's a crime. If they conspire to obstruct or lie, that's a crime. All members of Congress need to be investigated , to insure like trump claims , they were not involved in any way. Until this is done the American people will not have faith in our elections, or politicians in our government. And those corrupt will have consequences, and deter it from getting worse. The corruption Has to be stopped, or our country can't survive as a Democracy any longer, and the criminals take it over from us.

(18,486 posts)People still think that the House had authority to throw people in jail under inherent contempt, and no amount of explaining about why that's not the case will shake them from their misconception.
And now, many of these same people are scrambling aboard the "refuse to seat them!" bandwagon - a course of action just as unavailable as inherent contempt.

(9,265 posts)Full bore investigation of what happened and steps to make sure it cant happen again. We came frighteningly close to uncharted territory - shredding the Constitution to install a dictator, with the active help from a major political party.
